I appreciate any help or feedback offered and Thank you for your time.

Ps. The "made in Iran" concerns me if it actually 100 years old.

1. There is only one Picture all the same.

Your rug is old, probably 1920 - 1940 from what I can see on the one Foto. It has strong wear and was painted. This means Areas that have lost pile totally Show White foundation - this foundation was painted in Color of the pile to "hide" the defect.
Reading the description sounds like someone wanted to sell a Burger with the description of a first class dinner.

KAD,
What am I doing wrong? I have deleted my originals pics and uploaded again 8 different pics and each time after hitting upload and it finishes uploading, I hit the back button, and then click on the pic to make sure it uploaded correctly. I loaded the 8th pic and now they are all the same again being my last pic taken. I've spent 3 hours on this already and am very frustrated. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. I've looked for "help" to find answer but can't even find that. So sorry to have to bother you with this but I don't know where else to turn.
Thank you for your time.
